0:00.0	Hello and welcome to another episode of Prosecuting Donald Trump. It's Tuesday, September 26,
0:15.0	and I'm Andrew Weisman. I like that it's, if it's today, it's me. And I'm here, I'm here
0:23.0	virtually with my fabulous co-host Mary McCord. And if it's Tuesday, I'm happy to be Mary McCord too.
0:31.5	Tomorrow, I definitely want to be somebody else. You know, it's actually, it's really great that I
0:35.6	actually started the way because I was in DC last night with Jen Saki doing her first sort of
0:43.2	official Monday show, but I teach on Tuesday morning. So I took the train back and I didn't get back
0:50.4	until 2 30 in the morning. So it's actually good to be reminded exactly who I am on this Tuesday,
0:56.7	because I'm not really sure I will remember. So here's the big picture. We discovered something
1:04.6	at the Texas Tribune Festival. Mary and I were hosted by Chris Hayes. It was great. It's a bonus
1:13.0	episode for you all to listen to if you haven't already. And it was sort of a big picture wonderful
1:18.5	discussion. It's different than what we normally do. But Mary and I finally, finally, have discovered
1:25.7	a major difference between the two of us that we actually have gone to the mat on, which is
1:33.9	we were in Texas. I like, I don't know, maybe, maybe I shouldn't admit this. I am a fan of country
1:42.2	music. Yeah, we were in a restaurant and some country music songs started playing. I said, oh my
1:46.8	gosh, I can't stand country music. And I'm just like, I love country music. So there you go.
1:52.0	There's nothing to do with law that love love. Yeah, claimed it was more lyrical. I don't know.
1:57.6	No, you know what they said, but country music. Not my cup of tea. Country music is the last
2:04.8	refuge of the lyric. Like, lyric still matter in country music. Anyway, I can tell this is one
2:12.0	where, by the way, not only am I not going to convince you, but, you know, we get lots of comments
2:16.6	and questions from audience members and we're going to definitely be doing better, I hope, in dealing
2:22.6	with us. But now I'm sure this is going to lead to a huge contraton country music. No, we're going
2:28.8	to have a lot of praise and cons discussed. But it's really nice to start actually with that light
